Questions

How big is the Mb a PCB?

It measures 39 × 57 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Mb a use?

35 parts, built around the PAM8320RDR. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Mb a KiCad files?

From the burgrp/retradio repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is mb-a/board/mb-a.kicad_pcb and its schematic buttons/board/buttons.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Mb a design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask burgrp before reusing the design.
